Love not hate Twtdrs... 15:50 - Jun 22 with 2506 viewsbluelagos

The anti-scottish sentiment of many is a sad if predictable thing to read. Yeah, on one level seeing them go out is funny and good for the banter, but I still prefer them to Croatia.

Come on the jocks, an historic opportunity is there for you. Don't worry about all the Little Englanders, stand up, stand proud and make your nation proud :-)

Lots of good friends who are porridge gobblers, am sure it will mean a lot to them to make it through.

This is the second thread you've started in a matter of days praising the Scots and knocking the English. It's almost like you're looking for bites. It might well be that you've fanned the flames of anti-Scottish sentiment yourself.


Knocking the English?

Bit of banter is harmless, but there's been a bit vitriol from some on here towards the Scots and no, it doesn't sit well tbh.

So yeah, love not hate Dollers - even our Scottish neighbours :-)

So someone who cycled up there & had a great time including raising substantial funds for charity, who is known as one of the board's fighters for justice & peace, and who dares to twice "in a few days" praise that small nation & is clearly trying to promote peace & harmony rather than hate, is "looking for bites" & has "fanned the flames of anti-Scottish sentiment"?

Seems rather a bizarre take tbh.

I'll take the mick (especially if they lose) but I do like the Scots, the country and their independent thinking.

I know a few who have gone to live there including a sibling and am very jealous of the countryside/lifestyle on their doorsteps. I'd go tomorrow tbh if it wasn't so flipping wet!

If he'd only praised them I'd agree. He's also used both posts to have a pop at the English at the same time. As a sizeable majority on here will be English, then yes, that's obviously going to put a few backs up.

EDIT: Also, I don't know anything about "someone who cycled up there & had a great time including raising substantial funds for charity." You seem to assume everyone reads everything on this board!

To be honest I saw you praising the Scots/knocking the English before I saw any vitriol towards Scotland.

And yes, phrases like;

"Don't worry about all the Little Englanders"

"the overt aggression you sometimes get with England"

"A day in their company was...in stark contrast to many occasions following England"

"Ten german bombers, no surrender, rule brittania tell a story & set a different tone"

...do seem to be knocking the English. Not all english supporters are like this and while none of these lines in isolation are that bad, the cumulative effect rubs me up the wrong way somewhat as a peaceful England supporter!

I would assume the 'little Englanders' he refers to are those who behave that way and not those who don't.

Surprised you missed the sponsorship though as it was kept at the top of the page for a while I'm sure. On 2 separate occasions too!

Mind you, we don't always spot everything, that's true. And often it is the stuff that's pinned that gets overlooked the most.

As a fellow peaceful England fan am sure we'd get on fine Dolllers.

There is a section of England fan I absolutely dont warm too, and I am sure you dont either. (Namely the ones who I describe, namely the "No surrender" mob)

Have seen England overseas at a few tournaments and maybe seen some of our worst supporters up front a few too many times. But absolutely got no issues with normal England fans, like to think I am one too :-)

I'd like to see Scotland go out. I don't hate them though.

It's only like Ipswich fans wanting to see Norwich relegated.

Scotland fans would probably feel patronized if we were supportive of them.

The thing is, by and large, most people are supportive of the other home nations. Its clearly not reciprocated the other way though.

I enjoy the friendly rivalry with the Scots. Find it funny that they are currently going out. Particularly after getting a 0-0 against England was met with such gushing praise. Laughable that they were praising the quality of their strikers after 180m without scoring.

With that said, its not like Norwich for me, where I want them to do badly. Just that they give it, and there is no harm giving it back, if it is kept to fun and games.

Nah, fk em, they would happily see the demise of us going out and take great rejoice in it, why should we feel sorry for them trying to limp through a group stage where even finishing 3rd is enough to get through.
